Are there Archers who have won Olympics gold medals but are left handed?

This isn't really a science question, and is something you should be able to find with a search engine.

 

Thanks.

I am fascinated by the physics of archery sport.

Interestingly, can there be Archers who are left handed and won gold medals at the Olympics? I doubt.

I can’t see any reason why not. Why would you doubt it? Have searched for any?

Not surprisingly, there is at least one: https://www.teamusa.org/usa-archery/news/Features/2015/April/21/CEO-Denise-Parker-Archery-Will-Always-Have-a-Place-in-Me

And no doubt many others. 

This still has nothing to do with physics.  

Thanks.

Archery - Bow & Arrow sport.

Do you feel the law of conservation of momentum can be applied in physics?

Of course. It is a law of physics.

What has this got to do with the Olympics, being left handed or gold medals?

At this rate, the thread will be moved to Trash, I suspect.

New poster + eager mind = a few mistakes. Let's electronically crumple this one up, hit the bin, and start over.

prashantakerkar, being more specific about what you wish to discuss will result in a better conversation. Does being left-handed change the physics of archery much at the Olympic level? This is an opportunity to ask expert level questions. Feel free to start a better opening post.
